In the Past

Usually i am a fan of the monkey on lion king that says "It doesn't matter, its in the past"
If your talking about my finals i would agree, but right now i want to talk about something that does matter even though it is in the past.
Its service
This year i spent many hours with 12 of the most amazing people and tonight that year has come to the end. so even though it is in the past, it matters to me. It is possibly one of the greatest things i have ever done in my life, next to marrying marshall. I learned a lot about leadership, courage, serving in a general sense and service in a very tender specific sense from each person on the Service Council. Tonight our parents will come down from all over and have dinner with us we'll tell them some fluff about what we have done and move on, but it has been much more than that, its helped me to become more of who i want to be, more of who i need to be.
The Center for Service has involved all the good things in my life, it is how i met my husband, the center of my focus and inspiration. it has softened my heart given me direction and helped me form almost all of my permanent friendships This is my Shout out to Service, Thank you for shaping my life.

Hava Supi trip May 2010 with Service Council

Casey Peterson our awesome Leader of the service pack!

Focused?

Yup.
Its Finals
Marsh is taking the MCAT in 2.5 weeks
And we are very focused


Thats why we spent last night at Olive Garden
and watching this...

3 Episodes to be Exact!
Are we focused.. i say not.

But we are in love and I still managed to rock my Anatomy Final this morning

Im Sure watching Psych will help Mr. Marshall on the MCAT too.

Ironing irony

Last night was the NCAA championship- naturally Mr. Marshall hurried to finish all his homework so we could relax and watch the game.
It is so nice watching sports together- usually it is what a group of friends but this night it was just the two of us- which means- plenty of smooching, pajamas-basketball analysis messes that get cleaned up again and Laundry folding! 5 loads of laundry we folded last night! it was amazing! finally CLEAN clothes!
so as i am hanging up clothes we come to the conclusion that first of all- great wife i am.. I have never ironed Mr. Marshalls clothes! He is SO patient with me! so the firsts began!
I got out our cute flowery mini ironing board and started out.
naturally during one of the most semi exciting parts of the game ( it was a very unexciting game) as my leg moved forward the iron toppling over on to my calf as i was sitting on the floor. OUCH!
so....
Yes.
For any that wonder that is an imprint of an iron on my leg..
i was just trying to be a good wife!
